Chinese entertainment industry in disarray? Hollywood goddess welcomes strict father!

"What? Blow up the China Theatre?"

Old Martin patted a young white male movie fan sitting in front of him and asked in surprise.

The young white man was discussing this with his girlfriend when he turned around and saw a somewhat familiar older man. He chuckled and said, "You probably don't know how to use a smartphone. If you did, you should have already received the news notification..."

"The movie we're watching right now just had its premiere at the China Theatre, and then that Chinese guy who's both the director and the lead actor said he'd fund renovations for the China Theatre..."

"He puts on nice words, but what he really wants is to blow up the China Theatre. Right now, he's having the demolition team install numerous explosive charges on the main building of the China Theatre..."

"And it's being broadcast live globally! He's absolutely insane!"

Old Martin was stunned. He instinctively asked, "Isn't he a Chinaman? Why would he blow up the century-old China Theatre?"

De Niro and Leonardo DiCaprio, who were wearing baseball caps and trying to hide their faces, looked up in surprise upon hearing this, their faces full of disbelief.

The young white man shrugged and replied to old Martin, "Who knows? That's why I said he's a madman. Instead of protecting his own ethnic culture, he wants to blow it up. It's completely incomprehensible..."

When Old Martin heard him mention ethnic culture, he suddenly had a flash of inspiration and said quietly, "Actually, the China Theatre is not a product of Chinese culture, and it has nothing to do with Chinese culture."

"The architectural style of the China Theatre is purely a product of the stereotypes about China held by Hollywood filmmakers in the last century. Compared with real Chinese-style architecture, it is as ugly as a pile of shit."

"Moreover, it's a pile of excrement that Hollywood has trampled on countless times, a mixture of ugliness and bizarre strangeness. Bearing the title of 'China Theatre,' it's a stain on Chinese culture..."

He is, after all, a great director who makes a living from culture, and he knows very well that the cultural attributes of the China Theatre are thorough Hollywood culture, not so-called Chinese culture.

As a purebred Chinese, Lu Lin naturally found this bizarre thing strange and felt uncomfortable no matter how he looked at it, so it was perfectly normal for him to want to blow it up.

The young white man probably didn't expect the old man to be so knowledgeable, and he stood there dumbfounded, not knowing how to respond.

His girlfriend, however, spoke from a more emotional perspective, saying, "But that's no reason to blow up the China Theatre. It's a symbol of Hollywood's century-old heritage. How can you just blow it up like that? Isn't anyone able to stop him?"

Upon hearing this, the surrounding moviegoers nodded in agreement.

No matter how bad the China Theatre was, it was still a symbolic building in Hollywood. How could it be blown up for no reason?

Even old Martin nodded in agreement.

But if you were to ask him why no one could stop Lu Lin, he was actually quite baffled!

More than anyone else here, he wanted to know why the operators of the China Theater would allow Lu Lin to blow it up!

"The China Theatre was acquired by a Chinese company called TCL several years ago, and its full name is now TCL·China Theatre..."

As Old Martin pondered this, Little Leonardo nudged him with his elbow and whispered, "And that China guy is the global spokesperson for TCL, and supposedly a major shareholder too!"

Old Martin asked suspiciously, "How do you know all this?"

Leonardo DiCaprio waved his phone: "The news circulating online has already revealed the behind-the-scenes connections."

Old Martin: "..."

Old Martin was speechless.

But it doesn't mean they're speechless that they can't keep up with the times.

It was because he finally understood why the China Theatre wouldn't give him face.

When both he and Lu Lin wanted to rent the venue for their respective film premieres, China Theater didn't hesitate to refuse him and rented the venue to Lu Lin instead.

He naively comforted himself, saying that it was only natural for the China Theatre to favor the China Boys, and that he didn't need to care too much.

Now I finally understand. That Chinese guy is the actual owner of the theater, so of course he can use the space however he wants.

What does it matter how much face he has?

It doesn't even count as real yarn!

"So...theoretically speaking, that Chinese kid is blowing up his own assets, and nobody can stop him, right?"

Old Martin shook his head, clearing his mind of all the random thoughts, and continued to ask Little Li.

Leonardo DiCaprio shrugged: "It seems...that's true...especially when he blew up the China Theatre under the guise of 'funding renovations,' no one could stop him. Even getting the governor involved wouldn't have helped. His actions were perfectly justified, since historical buildings do need renovations..."

Old Martin: "..."

Old Martin was speechless again.

This time I'm truly speechless.

He had a bad feeling that the idea of ​​a Chinese guy blowing up a perfectly good Hollywood landmark was not a good omen.

I'm afraid that Hollywood in the future will be destroyed by that Chinese guy, just like this landmark building.

That Chinese guy isn't here to conquer Hollywood; he's here to destroy it.

But he seems to have that ability!

call--

The lights in the theater went out, and the movie began.

But Martin Scorsese had no interest in watching the movie; he was instead focused on Leonardo DiCaprio's phone screen, which was showing the live stream of the global premiere of "Shanghai Bund."

That is, the live broadcast of Lu Lin blowing up the China Theater!

……

……

[Fuck you, you damn Chinamen!]

You should stop your crazy behavior immediately!

Does the renovation really require demolishing the main theater building?

This Chinese guy isn't just going to renovate, he's going to blow up the theater!

[Don't eat the pickled radish, is he trying to become Hollywood's public enemy???]

[Hahaha, Lu Da, you did a great job!!!!]

Turns out I'm not the only one who thinks it's incredibly ugly, it deserves to be slammed!

[That ugly thing really should have been blown up a long time ago...]

[Speaking of which, Lu Da Guichu is actually a major shareholder of TCL. Just how rich is he?]

Who knows how rich he really is? Rumor has it he's a shareholder in BYD!

[After he left the Chinese entertainment industry, a lot of information came out, and his net worth is absolutely shocking...]

Has he left the Chinese entertainment industry? I don't think so. This "Shanghai Bund" was released as scheduled. I just came out of the theater after watching it...

……

……

In the live stream of Qianqian Films International Edition, English and Chinese comments each accounted for half, and everyone was talking to themselves.

Lu Lin had no time to read the live stream comments, because he was holding the detonator in his hand, baring his white teeth as he pressed it down hard.

boom--

In the darkness of Chinatown, a deafening roar shook the heavens.

The China Theatre, a symbol of Hollywood's century-long history, collapsed amidst a deafening roar and billowing dust.
